TAIEX , OCWAR-C and GLACY+ projects joined forces with the aim of enhancing the capacities of the criminal justice authorities of Ghana to apply legislation on cybercrime and electronic evidence. With support from the Cyber Security Authority of Ghana (CSA), a series of three introductory trainings for professionals outside of the capital were organised.
The first workshop of the series was held in Tamale, on 18-20 September, gathering some 30 participants from the criminal justice sector. The course benefited from the expertise of a national instructor, trained previously under the GLACY+ project.
The exercise generated both an investment in capacity building at the local level -and the opportunity to gather essential information about the processes and challenges of the law enforcement agencies and criminal justice, as well as needs outside the capital city.
With the unfolding of this first training, the GLACY+ project will continue to provide support in Ghana and equally, to increase collaboration with various stakeholders.
